Genre: western
Rating: 4
Johnstone Country. Frontier Spirit Lives Here.
Luke Jensen comes from a righteous brood. Survival is in his blood. And he’s burned enough gunpowder to forge out his own legend on the frontier as the toughest bounty hunter who ever stalked his prey . . .
THE HUNTING PARTY
When Luke Jensen traps fugitive Ben Craddock in Arapaho Springs, he’s ready to collect on his bounty. But the job’s not done—not by a long shot. A raid by a savage gang known as the Legion of Fire has left the peaceful settlement looted, burned to the ground, and the ashes scoured for female hostages—including the marshal’s daughter. For Luke this is more than a hunt. It’s now a rescue. And with Craddock busted out of jail and thrown in with the gang, it’s also revenge. Wrangling a small posse, Luke heads for the Legion’s hideout in the Kansas badlands. Outnumbered, they can’t risk an ambush. Instead, it’s going to take cutthroat cunning for the outlaws of the Legion of Fire to go down in flames—one by one.
My thoughts

Will I read more of the series ? Yes
Would I read more by this author? Yes
Very well written ,and the characters come to life before your very eyes, but then again they will because it's William W.Johnstone and J.A.Johmstone. And even though this is book 6 and my first time reading this series, it's not my first time reading anything by these author's ,in fact their two of my favorite western author's to read, just because of how well their stories being back memories of watching old western movies with my dad. So if your looking for something like that to read and get lost in then check them out as well as this series .With that said I want to thank NetGalley and Kensington Books for letting me read and review it .
Luke Jensen is the bounty hunter that the old west needs. I always enjoy reading books about the Jensens to see what they will do next.
It's hard to keep coming up with new superlatives for Johnstone books but I'll try. I always enjoy the characters and their connections to the families in other Johnstone books! The back history adds depth to the characters but the stories stand alone. Great westerns are easy to find if the authors last name is Johnstone!
We love westerns around here and Johnstone is one of our favorites. My husband has read every book he has written. I don’t think the books are as good as when William was alive and writing on his own but we are hanging in determined to read all his books. This book was really a good read
